why not be better in this sun
warmed, star-lit, shower baptiset
south, where such meetings are
wanted to be made known? The
place selected for the occasion is the
most appropriate in the whole
south. 1t is furnished with three
or four of the best springs thai
ever emerged from under the rocks
of Tennessee. This place is loca
ted on the L. G. N. railroad, sever
miles north of Pulaski and seventy
three from Nashville. Amy of the
trains going either north or south
will stop st Rivers crossing to &C
commodate passengers. This is 6
quarter of mile from the grounds

Death of Clifton Rodes.

This community was painfully
shocked last Thursday morning to
hear of the death of Mr.. Clifton
Rodes. 1t occurred at about 6
o'clock that morning. DR.. Wilson
left him at 2 O'clock and thought
him much better and at Mr..
Flournoy Rivers gave him some
medicine and he went to sleep
and was apparently resting east
ly, but he never awoke. He died
almost imperceptibly. His disease
was complicated kidney disease
which had been chronic for years,
becoming acute several months ago
and gradually growing worse. DR..
Atchison and family of Nashville
were with him several days. Fri
day evening he sent for Hume r.
Steele, esq'r, and made his will, the
contents of which are not yet made
public. Chi. Rodes was one of the
kindest hearted men we knew, uni
versally popular. de was s. mem
Der of the Presbyterian church and
of the Knights of Pythias. The
funeral took place Tuesday after
noon at 4:30 at the Presbyterian
church and his remains were es
corted by the Knights Of Pythias to
Maplewood Cemetery. The funer-
al sermon was preached by Rev. D.
L. Wilson.

1t becomeo my painful duty to
announce the death of one of my
best and brightest little pupils,
Robert Wesley Peden, who was ia
ken i'll very suddenly on last
Wednesday evening with meningitis
and died Thursday morning about
1920 o'clock. Little Bob was 7
years, months and days old
when death claimed him for his vic.
tim. Young as he was, he was
just ready to be promoted to the
third grade. He was diligent stu
dent, wrote neat hand and seldom
made mistake in reading or spell
ing. But oh, how sad, when the
school children gather again next

His remains were inferred in the
Campbellsville grave yard Friday.
Rev. Isaac Yokley conducted the
services. May God pity the bro

and may divine consolation soothe
the wretched despair that enshrouds
the ruins where their idol has been
torn down. May He guide their
footsteps in the way to glory and
let their arms outstretched in help
less anguish be entwined around
the sustaining cross until the gates
Iof pearl shall close behind them
and usher them forever into the
presence of their little one whom
they long to meet again.

SnOed'S Academy.

The school here closed last Fri
day, June 81. with an examination
during the day and an exhibition
at night. Friday morning opened
very gloomily but notwithsta ndipg
the heavy rain in the morning, by
10 O'Clock there was large crowd
of people to witness the closing ex-
ercIses, many more than could be
accommodated by room in the
house, and the number kept SWELL
ing until night. Dinner and supper.
such as our good women know how
to prepare, were spread on the
ground and everybody invited to
help themselves. The pupils were
put to rigid test in their examina-
ton and acquitted themselves with
credit. The concert at night was
grand. 1t was pronounced tc be
the best exhibition thai was ever
had in this section. Among those
who came to witness the closing
exercises from other vicinities were :
j. L. D., j. Sam and Ira Graves,
John Kimbroagh and j. w. Massey
of Good Spring, Rob't Harris and
his sisters of Bethel, DIR. Allen

The Farmer Benefit.

A very good audience gre tel
Master A. Edwin Farmer at The
opera house last Thursday evening
in the benefit concert.
Mrs. Farmer sang "TIl follow
Thee" and "Maiden's Flower Song
in sweetest voice.
Miss Ella Phillips, the charmin 2
little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Phillips of Pigeon Roost,
sang with most beautiful effect two
solos-"Wa iting" and "Sing Sweet
Bird" She has a splendid voice
and charming manners.
Miss Alice Wales accom- PAM
ments were highly complimented.
Mr.. Henry l.. Farmer playedth e
flute divinely In several selections
and responded to several encore
In one selection when he merged
into "Auld Lang Syne'' the audi
ence broke into applause. The
spirit of Old McRoberts pervaded
the air, and those of the audience
who remembered the old days of
Henry Farmers hOyhood and Nc
Roberts sweet violin were moved
with strange appreciation.
The feature Of the evening was
the performances of Master A. Ed
win Farmer manly lad of IL
years. He played several of He'll
er's Etudes, Nocturne from Chop
in, OPP 8, No. 2, and the 3rd Prelude
Fugue Of Bach, besides several
encores. His playing would be won
derful in any pianist of whatever
renown, and in boy of IL years it
seems to approach the miraculous.
The selections are Of the most diff
cult and of the very highest order
of classical music, as any musician
knows, and yet he was as perfectly
at home as if he were running the
scales. His execution is correct
and exact, with either hand, and no
matter how rapid nor intricate the
time, he plays with such absolute
precision that not note escapes its
proper time. His technique is won
derfully perfect-every detail be-
ing watched and brought up and
the full effect produced. He seems
to catch the inspiration of the au-
thor and gives wonderful expires
sion to it. His rendering of the
Fugue was grand beyond express
sion. Very few pianists of any age
attempt to play it, and yet this lad
went through 1t easily, and the
pearls Of melody strung in such
rich abandon through the intricate
corridors of this magnificent castle
of concord were gathered and gar
nered without loss or jar. The
people of Pulaski who have known
and loved his father from child
hood will watch with pride the
brilliant career Of this young Apol-

We haven't had a rain sufficient
to make land too wet to pillow this
spring-shoWers sufficient to keep
corn ant cotton growing, but not
enough for oats, pastures and Irish
potatoes. We have had a gracious
season 10 cultivate the fields.
Our two days meeting was well
attended and passed away we trust
pleasantly, if not profitably, to all
the attendants. We had 9 good
scriptural sermon since our last
report by Mr.. Johnson of Brick

again.
Wednesday evening of last week
we had a profitable, pointed lecture
on prohibition by Rev. B. f. Haynes,
and an exhortatiou by Mr.. Duncan.
